Excerpt from The Conard and Jones Co. Roses, 1923
This Rose is a spectacular show in itself. Every branch of the previous year's growth becomes lined on both sides, to the very tip, with closely set, wide Open, single flowers like dainty yellow hollyhocks' and the branches bend over with the weight of bloom. (see in color on front cover.) The long arching sprays make rare and exquisite indoor decorations in early spring when other flowers are scarce. On a dining table they are charming, the delicate yellow crepe-like blooms, harmonizing softly with the snowy linen and silver, making one think of a scene in fairyland.
